(by the way, Frank saw the 'toilet award' and said "Lord, I taught them well"
in case you care)

Frank decided he had to make a record that was his, not Jay's.

"Got Me Thinking" is. Frank Zappa wrote and sings most of it,
though I do help with the bridges, 'cause he didn't know what to put
there at the moment and I did.

If Frank's family likes, Dweezil or Ahmet or Moon too for that matter
may cover it, sell it if they want, there his family, they get dibs
on Frank's work with me if they want it.

Otherwise, guess what Ladies & Gentlemen?
The Frank Zappa part of our show is already, oh, yeah.
Almost over. Jay has another Halloween Song, which is too much
a freakin natural for Frank for him to pass on it.

But if you wanted an idea of what Frank Zappa had to say,
"Got Me Thinking" was it.

Now. I'm not going to post here anymore unless I actually get the
idea that you are for real grappling with a difficult to get-your-head-around
concept such as knowing how to allow yourself interaction with the
deceased; I'm well aware that I am the exception, not the rule.

So, let it fade.
I won't keep posting back if you'll let it fade already.

Frank wanted to make a statement.
As he had just helped me make a record for Jay

Hmm let's see. The ' Les ' person jumps on the scene with a song that was copyrighted in 1997 , the Forum has been around for about 6 yrs. Why are we just now hearing about this miraculous ' channeling ' ? Frank's been dead for what , 10 yrs? Why does this person burst on the scene NOW??? As I stated before, Any Zappa fan worth his salt lives with a " prove it to me " attitude and NEVER takes a side without doing the homework.

So tell me . Les , why now and why should we believe you ?? Walk across my swimming pool , change my water into wine , most of all , PROVE YOURSELF - not mocking...just want more answers ...

Why didn't you answer the question?

Because you are a fraud, and full of shit.

Go fuck yourself. You should be ashamed.

You'll be lucky if a Family member doesn't hunt you down and kick the living shit out of you...

I'll go with the basic CONCEPT that he THINKS he's channeling Frank. That's ok with me ... heard a lot of weird shit over the years... remember Nancy Raygun consulted higher powers... but to come out and actually state that Frank is among us via this guy is a little over the top IMHO. Harry Houdini might be a better option.

But if this guy wants to associate himself with Frank through some ledgerdemein hocus pocus and have us all believe it... well Les , what did you expect ?? It's not like this is commonplace everyday. But I will give ya credit for compiling some useful musical entertainment......just wish you coud give us some more proof ya know? How bout asking Frank what he and I were talking about before a concert in Phoenix in 1983 ?

THAT would convince me ... in the meantime.... have fun with what you're doing..... just don't get pissed off at us NON-BELIEVERS ..it's the skeptisism , stupid

Being ONE who is used to suspending my disbelief,
AND
recognizing that truth is stranger than fiction
AND
being unafraid of being unpopular
AND
somewhat FAMILIAR with the ways that us humans are 'overtaken' with inspiration, when it strikes us (--and the mutability of people's interps of how THAT manifests itself . . .),
I went ahead and checked it out.

and y'know, if 'you got me thinking' appeared as a demo from say, '80-'82, I coulda believed it was 'authentic'. Sounds like it COULD be a zappa song after a few more rehearsals and the right musicians (maybe a few more margaritas). so kudos to the songwriters and the transparency of the ether and the joys of the internet etc. Would it fit alright in a halloween setlist somewhere? Hell ya. Should they put up a link with a flash page on zappa.com? For Halloween? Why not? Would it fit on a Howard Stern show or Dr Demento? You bet!

Am I losing my rational mind?
Are we heading for Armageddon?
When there's no more room in hell, will the dead walk the earth?

Who cares?
We still have Pygmy Twylyte, Titties and Beer, Zomby Woof and Goblin Girl.
Why wouldn't FZ be the Ghosty with the Most-y?
hotcha!

[but just a friendly little warning to the death-obsessed out there . . . they DO suck you in and don't want you to cavort with the living . . . they want more attention than you can give them . . .<insert eyebrows going up and down>]

Who woulda thunk another thread would deteriorate into yet another argument. Chill guys, this is a really controversial topic and I wouldn't say a non believer or a believer was stupid.Personally, I believe there are people who have this "gift", that's not to say I believe everything I'm told by them. If that makes me stupid or naive, then so be it. We all have our beliefs, live and let live eh?

P.S. I think Lesley is a girl, hence - Lesley Jane.

_________________"Listen to that noise! It's like Barry White eating wasps."

He's not hurting anyone so let him have his fun. Now if he ( or she ) starts releasing things under the FZ name.. well , that's another topic.

I can grasp the idea of channeling , astral projection & time travel and some other mysterious ideas that us mere humans can't excersise , and if this guy wants to believe that they have the ' POWER ' , it's ok with me.

I just can't go with the generalization that all of us are stoopid ( according to Zombie ) because of his own tunnel-vision.

Channneling is a complete pantload, and any of you dipshits that lend even the slightest bit of credibility to it, are suckers. PT Barnum would love you.

Another little opinion for you....you don't have to be nice all the time. When something is as insane as channeling comes up, why candy coat anything. Its a total crock from the get go, and anyone who says different is fooling themself.

Oh Great Guru , Soothsayer of Sacredness , Knower of All To Be Known , Purveyor Of Practicalness , Idiom Of Ideas ..... you seem to portay the putridness of small mindedness peoples everywhere. Tell me...

Is the world flat ?
Will man ever visit the stars ?
Is global warming for real?
What's the story of evolution all about?

Please , please tell me what I should believe and not believe.

You seem to have ALL the answers about EVERYTHING....why do you behave so modestly???

Please oh please , straighten us all out so that we can , somehow , be almost as smart as you are.
